Lamp-id

Happy Indigo hanging in the new office of Science Park in Borås who works for a positive societal development through a circular economy. The sustainable interior is made by Karuscha styling.

Our Slow [birch] bark is traveling around Sweden with an exhibition about birch bark, “Näver – det beresta materialet.”

Up very north of Sweden you find the nature resort Vuoggatjålme. They expanded their restaurant and found our lamps so suitable for the interior. These three k[not] waste in white combined with our lamps in birch bark. Tooba and Jenny from Göteborgs Stadsmission made the lamps in the macramé technique. Photo Per Lundström.

The new Scandic hotel at Landvetter airport, designed by Wingårdhs Architects, opened the end of May 2021. We have delivered our lamps Happy indigo to the conference area on the second floor.

The community of Mölndal opened a new sustainable meeting place. For this the bought our lamps in jeans, Slow seams, but also leased some of our lamps, like this one; Happy Indigo.

The white “k[not] waste” are hanging here from the high ceiling at PP Skeppsbron in Åhus, a town in the southern part of Sweden. The client just fell in love with this lamps when she visited Niehku Mountain Villa [see # 30-33]. After a long research she found us and we could fulfill her dream! These are made by G, her first two lamps made for us.

Slow seams [large] for Mölndals Stad. Made by Mari.

To “ROOTS”, the new creative hub at the hotel Downtown Camper by Scandic in Stockholm we delivered six lampshades “slow [birch] bark”. YuXia and Lahib made these lamps together. For Lahib these were her first own lamps.

“Happy Indigo” to the new office of “Kretslopp & Vatten” in Alelyckan outside Gothenburg. A lampshade made of leftover warp in fine flax from Kasthall and dipped in natural indigo. The bright indigo color adds so much to the shades. These are made by YuXia and Sabah.

To the newly opened conference center in Gothenburg, Gårda Konferens, we delivered our first extra large “slow tan”, 90 cm in diameter. While YuXia was working with the lamp at the workspace Ergon, driven by Göteborgs Stadsmission it felt gigant, but as soon it was installed in their large room it shrinked a lot! So from now you can order this extra large lamp from us!

To Denim City in Amsterdam our Lill delivered herself our lamp “slow seams”. It was installed in their “very-important” meeting room. This lamp is made in different shades of jeans seams and it was Veronica from Ergon who made this lamp and she was the one to suggest to mix more seams in different blue colors. And this one has a copper colored lampshade – really nice too!

From one another partner to Göteborg Stadsmission, ICA Kvantum Munkebäck, we got an order of three lamps to their café-corner. Two lamps were special lamps made of yarn and the third was our ordinary lamp in black leather in 3th grade from Tärnsjö tannery. Yu Xia and Veronica from Ergon made this lamps.

From ICA Maxi Torslanda, one partner of Göteborg Stadsmission” we got a larger order to their new deli-department. Yu Xia, Faride and Lisbeth from the work-space Ergon made all this lamps for this project. We all went out there to see them in real life.

To the new concept hotel Downtown Camper by Scandic in Stockholm we delivered two of our lamp “Slow tan”, made of third sorted vegetable tan. (and also two “Slow seams” see # 8-9 below). Manufactured at Göteborgs Stadsmission by Lucina and Stina who participated in their work training.

K[not] waste [large], the example we have for lease.

We got a special request. Lamps made by the discarded jeans of the co-workers at Forsman & Bodenfors. This is a really good story and fun projekt. Produced at Kriminalvården in Borås.

Our very first serie of lamps were made in collaboration with a Swedish prison. A new experience for us as designers and also the insight that design really can make a change. This was the start of SKRYTA [slow design]. All lamps were sold in short period of time.
